International cricket was suspended in Pakistan following a terrorist attack on the Sri Lankan team bus in Lahore in March 2009. The country has gradually hosted teams again in the last five years before Test cricket was revived in late 2019 when Sri Lanka toured for two Tests.
The first Test match will be played at the National Stadium, Karachi after which the teams will move to Rawalpindi for the second match.
All three matches of the T20I series will be played at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore from February 11.
